From bb8603f8e166e49f02f865213feee7afddeac9b0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Sat, 18 Apr 2015 20:14:20 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] link_path_walk: get rid of duplication What we do after the second walk_component() + put_link() + depth decrement in there is exactly equivalent to what's done right after the first walk_component(). Easy to verify and not at all surprising, seeing that there we have just walked the last component of nested symlink.
